HVAC air filter clips also referred to as air filter holding clips, keep air filters in place in their frames or housings. These important clips prevent the actual filters from falling out due to pressure fluctuations when the HVAC equipment is powered on or off. They are used primarily in applications where the HVAC equipment does not have a filter track to hold the air filters in place.

We offer a complete line of air filter holding clips and fasteners. The use of the correct fastener, and the proper number of fasteners, ensures greater efficiency which may prolong the life of the air filter itself.

Custom Clips & Fasteners
Our in-house engineering and design department can provide design assistance if you require any custom clips or fasteners. We accept designs in a number of file formats, including DWF, DWG, DXF, FBX, JPG, PRT, SAT, TIF, STP, and PDF. Prototype development services are also offered to our customers for product evaluation prior to actual production.

Frequently Asked Questions About Air Filter Clips & Fasteners

What are HVAC air filter clips and fasteners used for?

HVAC air filter clips also referred to as air filter holding clips, keep air filters in place in their frames or housings. These clips prevent the actual filters from falling out due to pressure fluctuations when the equipment is powered on or off.

What materials can be used in manufacturing?

Depending on the product, we can manufacture using galvanized hard drawn or 302 stainless steel, and spring tempered steel with a zinc plate finish for corrosion protection. The material used will depend on the specific application and the required performance characteristics of the clip or fastener.

What factors should be considered during design?

There are several factors that should be considered, including the size and shape of the air filter, the mounting location, and the available space for the clip or fastener.

What is the manufacturing process?

The manufacturing process typically involves using specialized equipment, such as stamping presses, to form the clip or fastener into the desired shape. The clips or fasteners are often subjected to various finishing processes to improve their strength, durability, and corrosion resistance.

Can they be manufactured to meet specific requirements?

Yes, they can be manufactured to meet specific requirements for size, shape, and performance characteristics. We offer a variety of standard sizes and we will quote custom sizes upon request. They are typically designed using computer-aided design (CAD) software and are manufactured using specialized equipment and techniques.

What is the lead time for manufacturing?

The lead time will depend on the complexity of the clip or fastener, the quantity required, and other factors. Most HVAC air filter clips and fasteners are in stock and can be shipped promptly after ordering.

Can they be customized in large quantities?

Yes, they can be customized in large quantities using automated production processes, such as injection molding or stamping. This allows for high-volume production while maintaining consistent quality and precision.

What quality control measures are used?

We use a variety of quality control measures to ensure that the clips and fasteners meet the required specifications and performance standards. This may include visual inspections, dimensional measurements, and testing of mechanical properties, such as strength and durability.
